Christmas Eve


Sad news - Granddad fry has Died. Aged 93. So sad. Mum and Dad are here, so we have moped around all afternoon. Dad is really upset, not that it wasnt unexpected, but sad to lose a parent. I havent seen him for eight years, since i went over when pregnant with Eden. I feel sad I didnt see him again, I sort of knew it would be the last time when i was there, i remember waving out the back of the car as we drove away and him standing on the road waving. Sad :( .


So its been a yucky end of year. It will feel good when 2008 rolls around. A fresh start. I take heart that baby and granddad will be together, walking hand in hand towards the light. Romantic perhaps, but comforting. Me and Mum wrote out wishing tree messages today, before granddads passing, for Nana and Alex, made us both cry. I couldnt even write all that i wanted to write, didnt want the ladies there to see me a mess!!!!!


So Christmas day will begin with a cloud of saddness decending on it. Im hoping the fact that we are together and have Chris here to distract us will lift that cloud somewhat. I wish he had have held out till after christmas.......nevermind.


Well we are otherwise set for christmas day, jonty has done all the prep. Good man that he is. Me and him attempted to make a cake for chrissy, hmm seems cake decorating is quite an art. Ill post a pic from a distance so it doesnt look too bad. Im sure chris will eat it anyway.


Well i would like to post a pic of granddad, but dont have one on the computer, will ask mum to send me one. It still doesnt feel real he is gone. I wish i could have known him better, though i still feel close to him in a certain way, he was so lovely. RIP granddad, and help little alex find his/her way. We all loved you so much.


Ill post a pic of Dad and Chris today. Until i get one of grandad.
